Signing Reserves

[John@TheFleet]

Sorry but I'm new to this game and can't be arsed to read all the posts. How on earth do I transfer players from my Reserve team into my 1st team. I've just been taken on as top-dog at Gravesend (yes, I know,I know..)and whilst top of the league (!!!!) I'm down to 16 fit players due to injuries and no money for transfers plus all available loan players look crap. I've got a couple of likely looking lads in the reserves but when I go to the reserve team screen and right-click on the player, bugger-all happens. Please help, I've got Dagenham away in the cup next game and am currently totally shafted.

They have to be "real" players John, not just made up computer ones like Dave Del Piero and Vince Veiri.

If they are real players you can set them to be in the first team by changing their status on the little menu where you can set transfer status, release media stories etc.

Cheers, Jimmy. Looks like the board'll have to dip into their pockets. Incidentally, Dagenham beat us 1-0!

.....and if you are short in your first team squad then the game will improvise by assigning players to make the squad up for each fixture.

 

Better to D.I.Y. for a better team though.....

When i first got the game which was way back wen it came out i started a canvey game. I wondered y i didnt have n e real players untill matt told me 2 put it on large database.

[CanveyFan]

Yeah without the large database you only get about one real player for clubs like Canvey. Quite annoying really!
